Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1887-03-23


Morris to Hon. G. l.. Brown mt the
:, Metropolitan hotel last "Wednesday
evening proved to be very enjoyable
one. Hon. J. III. Brown, Attorneys
Valentine, Stevens, Reynolds, Cross
field and Noble and Hon.
Geo. I. Becker were present and
| with the citizens of Morris made the
evening very pleasant one. Mr.
Bunnell had his dining room neatly
! decorated, the tables richly spread
and did his part in his usually accept
able manner.
J. w. Reynolds has received his
| commission from Gov. McGill rs at
| torney for the settlers on indemnity
lands in this state, particularly i'll
Traverse county, for the purpose OF
deciding the question of title rs be-
tween the government and the Mani
toba railway company. Mr.. keynolos
drafted the bill under which he was
appointed and was instrumental in
having it passed. The determination
| of the question of title will be Il great
boon to the settlers on these lands,
and Mr.. Reynolds was the choice OF II
large majority of those Interested.
The state pays the expenses OF the
suits and the next legislature appro-
PIRATES the money TO pay the bills us
audited by the governor. Herman

The Fergus Falls Journal says: In
| a newspaper the business men want
| to see announcements of new enter
prises (not III their own lihe) anu
buildings, the arrival of new families,
| the progress Of the city. The ladies
| look for social items parties, personals,
etc. So it goes; each class requires
Is own class of news, and Judges
| the paper from its standard. The IN
| eyitable conclusion is that it is only
| liberal minded, board guage person,
whose thoughts cover the whole field
who has nrany classes of interest, who
finds the newspaper really Wefl-flled
with entertaining new; and the
| moral is, that if each person will go
somewhat out OF his way to furnish
| the newspaper the kind of news that
he is particularly Interested III, the
result will be Il newspaper equally III
teresting and valuable to all classes.
The delinquent tax list and the
financial statement have been pub
lished and the remainder of county
printing for this year will be less
than for any year during the last de-
cade. No one understands this any
better than the editor of the Sun and
if that worthy gentleman wishes to
comment upon the matter, 1t seems
strange that he can not he truthful
about it. Just why the SuE will
persist in lying when the truth would
answer its purpose better, and when
at the close of the year the county
records will make its lies even more
manifest than they are at present, 1t
is difficult to determine. Ii that
paper believes it can deceive any OF
its few readers and make political
capital for itself and It's numerous
management by so doing, it must
place very low estimate upon the
Intelligence Of its patrons.
